Testimonials

"Shahzoda is one of the single most astounding people I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with. She is dedicated, driven, and unstoppable even when presented with unique and difficult challenges. I have watched her grow, learn, and conquer absolutely everything and anything. She will surpass any of the greats in due time, I promise. I wholeheartedly recommend her for any position she desires — she is an absolute asset to any organization she is part of. Hire her. Take care of her. Watch your business succeed."

Jack Gierlich — CMO · 0→1 builder, healthtech & SaaS

"If I had to describe Shahzoda in three words they would be: authentic, passionate, and determined. As Program Director at CUNY Tech Prep, I watched her develop and pitch her project, coordinate Brooklyn College's first-ever hackathon, and serve as a CTP ambassador — eagerly paying it forward to her peers. Shahzoda is a shining example of someone who not only sets goals but puts in the work to reach them and, often, surpass them. Any team will be lucky to have her."

Jackie Bellando — Program Director, CUNY Tech Prep

"I had the pleasure of hiring Shahzoda for a summer internship at Brooklyn Bark. She presented as mature, competent, and dependable — and so she was for her entire tenure with us. She completed assignments fully and happily, going the extra mile when the opportunity presented. Shahzoda would be an asset to any organization needing her skill set. We were thrilled to have her on our team."

Helen Bowers — CMO, Brooklyn Bark Pet Care

"I've met hundreds of students as a college assistant in the Magner Career Center at Brooklyn College. But none of them have impressed me more than Shahzoda Davlatova. As a freshman she began using our office to build her professional skills. Her enthusiasm in computer science leads her to explore all aspects of the field — mix that with persistence, determination, and passion and you get a future leader destined for success. What must not be overlooked is the kindness she shares with others. She never says no to someone who asks for help. Any company would be extremely fortunate to have her as a team member."

Joseph Guevara — College Assistant, Magner Career Center, Brooklyn College

"Shahzoda is amazing to work with. She is confident, capable, has a great attitude, and is a team player. I felt confident placing responsibilities in her hands, knowing they would be completed in a timely fashion with the highest level of quality."
